Ann,

The choice of paper should depend on the global settings for your embosser.  If 
you have selected "narrow width" in the global settings, that's what you should 
get when you emboss directly using Swift.

  One thing I've noticed about swift is that when I emboss directly from Word, 
wide paper is automatically chosen, and that is not good for me because I use 
narrow paper.

  SWIFT is a nifty Word template that helps you map Word styles to DBT styles 
and actually lets you create a document in Word and emboss it directly from 
there, with DBT doing the translation in the background. 

   

  You can also bring a Word document directly into DBT for editing.  

   

  It is likely installed on your system.  If you use Word 2007, check the 
add-ins item on the ribbon. There will be a button labeled DBT, which brings up 
its options.

  I have to admit I haven't tried very hard to find the answer to this myself 
so if someone could indulge me by answering this, I'd appreciate it.  What 
exactly is SWIFT?  I'm getting the impression you use it to bring documents 
into DBT from Word, but I don't really understand how you actually install it 
or use it.  I saw reference to installing it when I installed 10.7 but I 
couldn't tell if it really installed!
